The Warsaw University of Technology has made it to the top 10 best universities!

The Warsaw University of Technology has been ranked 14th in the Emerging Europe and Central Asia university ranking. This is a one-spot improvement on the last year’s ranking.

Presenting the research, technology and projects which address changes in the functional and spatial structure and equipment of cities in response to climate change and its impact is the main purpose of the conference Redefining Cities in View of Climate Changes.

The scientist heads the Institute of Control and Industrial Electronics Department of Industrial Electronics at the Warsaw University of Technology. This achievement culminates his long-standing work with and service to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), of which IEEE IES is a part.

The issue is serious. Ice formation and build-up can be a lethal danger in many spheres of life. The risk is still greater if icing occurs on aerodynamic surfaces of aircraft flying at a high speed or on wind turbines, or on key parts of electrical wiring. Rafał Kozera, DSc, Eng. of the Warsaw University of Technology, Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering, has an idea how to solve this problem.

The Inauguration Ceremony of the Academic Year 2019/2020 took place on the  1st of October in the Main Building of the Warsaw University of Technology.

In Poland, the average household size has been on the decline for several years now. According to the forecasts of the Central Statistical Office from 2016, it will continue on a downward trend in the next decade. What is the quality of life of people living on a single income? A research project on this subject was conducted by Marlena Piekut, DSc, Eng., from the College of Economics and Social Sciences of the Warsaw University of Technology Branch in Płock.

The 45th ERF event will be held at the Warsaw University of Technology from 17th to 20th September, 2019.

We have prepared for you a printable timetable and a calendar for students.

Business - Innovations – Technology

An unusual game has been developed at the WUT Faculty of Mechatronics, enabling the player to travel around the city on a wheelchair. The goal of the app is to make the able-bodied aware of the difficulties that disabled persons have to face every day in the urban space.

The concept proposed by a Polish-German consortium would offer savings and reduced pollution. On-board the REWARD project are scientists of the Warsaw University of Technology’s Faculty of Chemistry and Process Engineering.

It is the fourteenth time in the history of Shell Eco-marathon that a team from the Student Association for Vehicle Aerodynamics (SKAP) at the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering participated in this sports event. What was the course of this competition and what are our students’ plans for the future?

Sleepless nights, constant brainstorming sessions and hectoliters of coffee – this is how the Proton Dynamic team members summed up the two-year process which led them to achieve their desired goal, that is the creation of the Student Formula electric bolide.

Talented secondary school students from several dozen countries are competing against each other in 2019 International Young Physicists’ Tournament (IYPT), or a team-oriented competition asking the contestants to creatively solve the proposed problems in physics. The Warsaw University of Technology is the host of this year’s event.

Scientists of the Warsaw University of Technology Faculty of Chemistry and Process Engineering use graphene oxide and graphene-related compounds to develop new materials for infrared radiation protection. Their IR-GRAPH Project was funded by the National Centre for Research and Development (NCBR).

The world’s best universities in 54 academic subjects have been revealed. The Warsaw University of Technology was included in the ranking list for eight academic subjects: mathematics, physics, mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, telecommunication engineering, instruments science and technology, metallurgical engineering and chemical engineering.

A team from the Vehicle Aerodynamics Students’ Club of the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering will take part in Shell Eco-marathon, to be held in Weybridge, near London, between 2 and 5 July 2019.

This is a ranking of the world’s top universities.

Dull, boring, hard or even irrelevant or devoid of reality in the form we know it from school handbooks. These are the common conceptions of mathematics. Can you break that stereotype? Yes, you can! Scientists of the Warsaw University of Technology do just this.

What solutions do students test in their vehicles?

Beside the Robotics Student Research Group, this year’s University Rover Challenge finals will see the representatives of the Astronautic Student Research Group (“SKA”). We sat with Michał Hałoń, the Autonomy Team Leader, to ask him about the preparations for the event at SKA and what can be expected of their rover, Sirius.

The Warsaw University of Technology will be represented by as many as two teams in this year’s University Rover Challenge Finals, an international competition of student-built Mars rovers. The qualified teams both operate at the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering; these are the Robotics Student Research Group (“KNR”) and the Astronautic Student Research Group (“SKA”). We sat with Jacek Prokopczuk (KNR Leader) and Damian Mucha (Deputy Leader for Collaboration) to ask them about getting ready for the competition scheduled to run from May 30 to June 1.
